As per the Income Tax Act, 1961 if the value of gifts received is more than Rs. 50,000 a year, then such amount is taxed as income in the hands of the receiver. These gifts may be in any form – cash, jewellery, movable and immovable property, shares etc.
However, this rule is not applicable if your relatives present the gifts. the income tax rules specify relatives from whom tax free gifts can be received. These are:
Parents,Spouse,Your and your spouse’s brothers and sisters,Brothers and sisters of your parents, Your lineal descendants (including spouses),Lineal descendants (including spouses) of your spouse
